First Dance "orchestration," amazing ceremonies, all customized &

Chamberlain can provide
a string quartet, harpist or band of any size for ceremonies
and receptions. She is a genius at orchestrating a meaningful
musical score that is "like a scene from a movie,"
according to those who have thrilled to some of her
creative concepts. Clients enthuse that she and her
band know when to be "somewhat invisible,"
offering soft, soothing and elegant background music.
And they know when to "punch it up" for great
dancing. "We call it 'evolved' swing," says
Chamberlain, "which embodies the very essence of
exuberant jazz music that utilizes the art of spontaneity
and the skill of the virtuoso soloist."
"She could make Aretha Franklin jealous,"
says the catering director of a prestigious Los Angeles
private club. "She is very talented. What I like
most about Judy is how she plays to a crowd. Whether
she's playing to 10 or 1000, she can completely capture
an audience. Her performance is always wonderful."
Chamberlain is not a booking agent. She is out in front
of the band, so the ideas and details she works out
with brides and grooms are always executed perfectly.
Her treasured musicians are the most respected studio
and touring pros on the West Coast. "You've seen
them on television with Diana Krall," says Judy,
"and at The Hollywood Bowl with Tony Bennett or
Natalie Cole."
She is a superb listener, clients agree. "Judy
is exceptional in the planning stages of an event,"
says a wedding coordinator who has worked with her for
years. She has great empathy and devotes herself to
giving people exactly what they want."
With a repertoire that numbers thousands of songs and
spans all the decades of American music, on-the-spot
requests are child's play for Judy.
